The Spartan Basketball program is part of the Arapahoe Youth League (AYL) and as a member club, we offer both a boys and girls league for players in 2nd through 8th grade. Please note that each child will play at his/her grade level as opposed to age group. A player is allowed to play up one grade level but not down.

The AYL basketball season begins the first week of November with practices once or twice weekly depending on age and competition level. The season consists of eight (8) games. Games will take place on Saturdays for grades 4-8 and Friday evening for 2nd and 3rd grade. There are no games played during the two weeks of winter break. The season concludes with a two week play-off schedule and championship games. The championship games take place in mid-February.

Practice will be once or twice a week on a weekday at gyms in our area. Those days of the week that practices take place will be determined closer to when the season begins.

If you have questions regarding which level is appropriate for your player, please email
